Did this Russian version of Sonic Spinball really exist or is it fake? I have never seen a physical copy on the internet.

Russian here. What you posted looks like an average Russian pirate cart for Mega Drive. I assume it's not even in Russian, since the screenshot shows English text. All they did was print the cover with the Russian description. Last time I checked, no games for Mega Drive were ever officially released in Russia, it was all piracy.

I think someone did have the rights for official Sega distribution, but they just imported copies from Europe unmodified.
